A 10-year-old Santa Ana girl has been killed in a single-car crash on Interstate 15 near Baker, according to a news report.
The California Highway Patrol said that Kimberly Robles was a passenger in the back of a Lincoln Navigator traveling north on I-15 that crashed near Afton Canyon Road after the left rear tire thread separated, causing the driver to lose control and the SUV to roll at least once. Robles was partially ejected from the vehicle and was declared dead at the scene.
Two other passengers in the SUV’s back seat – 1 14-year-old boy and a 20-year-old woman – were airlifted to area medical centers for treatment of moderate injuries. The 42-year-old driver and a 21-year-old passenger in the front seat were transported to Barstow Community Hospital to be treated for minor injuries.
